Recommended settings for RSS with the different versions of Windows Server


curios if microsoft has recommended settings rss on windows 2008, 2008 r2, 2012, 2012 r2 when using iscsi. know rss enabled default. work large tech company supports iscsi , reason recommend on 2008 platforms disable rss. i'm trying determine why would seem iscsi benefit using rss.

hi,

yes, rss enabled default in windows server 2008 , windows server 2008 r2. enables network adapter distribute network processing load across multiple cpus in multi-core computers.

in addition, best practice iscsi run iscsi traffic on separate network. although there no official documents indicate relationship between rss , iscsi. based on understanding, better enable rss iscsi.

best regards,

susie
